how do you know witch olsen twin played the episodes?

[BoyCrazy247]

i was wondering what episodes did MK play? and witch episodes did ashley play?

[folfan01]

I think they showed them at the same time twice.At those times you can see who's who because Ashley's taller.

[jordojockey]

I think what you're asking is in the episode where they play Michelle individually, how do you know if Mary-Kate or Ashley played the character? In answer, nobody really knows except the cast and crew of the show. The two are indistinguishable in voice and appearance (unless compared side-by-side), and they both are credited in each episode of Full House.

[Brandon 2006]

they both appear in every episode. they split the scenes. like that episode when stephanie was acting like
d.j. and michelle was acting like
stephanie.

Ummm...i dont know if anyone else noticed this...but the way i told them apart was Ashley's hair was darker then Mary-Kate's!

[kfoard]

Another way yu can tell them apart is Ashley is right handed and Mary-Kate is left handed.

[hch]

This is one of the greatest mysteries of all and here is my hypothesis:

The Olsen twins are shown in the same episode, just in different shots. The way some shows do it, I think, is that they employ one twin for the long shots and another for the close-ups. That's what i think.

Or they could have had one twin play one scene and another one play the next scene. Ahh, the magic of TV.

I was watching Entertainment Tonight about 6 months ago for the full story behind Full House and if I remember correctly the twins were shown together four times and basically the way they dcided which one would do a particular scene especially in the earlier episodes was that whatever one was in a better mood would be used for that scene or episode.

Lol

[Little Dixie Carter]

Ashleey is taller and MAry-Kate is left-handed

[Swimfan85]

i saw something on E! about the Olsen Twins and I believe at the time Ashley was louder and most of the time played the outgoing michelle and Mary-Kate, if there was an emotional scene, prob. played michelle then

[Mary Charlene]

That's neat!

I remember reading about this is one of those girls magazines (it may have been Barbie magazine...) this was back when the show was still on primetime and everything. The twins were interviewed and they talked about how they alternated scenes but they sometimes fought over who got to be in scenes with nicky and alex.

Thats all I remember from the magazine article...I doubt I still have it but now i wish i did!

:wave: cara :wave:

Ashley's ears are more pointer than MaryKate's

Here's a picture:

[musicradio77]

I know that this thread was from three years ago. Mary-Kate played the most comical role and Ashley played the most serious role.

[Vegas Girl]

Boy, her ears do look pointy there!

No wonder they always wear their hair down and long now to cover their ears! Notice they never wear it pulled back? :lol:

No, it was Mary-Kate who did the emotional scenes, and Ashley did the more comedic stuff. Also the producers perfered Ashley because of her comedic timing. If you go to amIannoying.com and type in their last name it has some stuff about that.

:wave: cara :wave: Cool... Aw little Nicky and Alex :)

I wonder why they decided to have both of them on.. when they could've just used one of them, like they did with Michelle.

[Dilly]

Near the end, the producers wanted to keep one Olsen twin but people got upset so they kept both. I don't know which twin they wanted to fire. It made news at the time.

I think they would have probably fired Mary-Kate because the producers perfered Ashley because she had good comedic timing. That is just my guess though.

Who do you think did a better job playing Michelle in season 8? MaryKate or Ashley?
